    Crown Isle Golf Resort will stand out in your memory as one of those unique places on the golfing globe.

    Home of the PGA Tour of Canada/Mackenzie Tour Spring Qualifying School, Crown Isle Golf Resort in Courtenay is tucked under the shadows of the massive Comox Glacier and the beautiful Beaufort Mountains.  The resort is located just five minutes away from an international airport and forty minutes from the Island’s top skiing destination.

    Crown Isle Golf Resort received PGA of BC Facility of the year for 2020.

    The clubhouse is equally dazzling. The 48,000-square-foot West Coast creation includes a pro shop, family friendly bar and grill, and banquet rooms.

    The adjacent Villas at Crown Isle, which have been awarded 4½ stars stars by Tourism B.C., are some of the most luxurious on the Island.

    The golf course matches the quality of the rest of the resort and stretches 5,200 yards from the forward tees to over 7,000 yards from the championship tees.

    While Crown Isle is mostly a forgiving resort-style course with wide, rolling fairways and subtle undulating greens, don’t be lulled into a false sense of security. For instance, the fourth hole is a testy, 163-yard, par three over water. Hit it to the middle of the green and you’ll be fine, but take on the sucker pin placement tucked near the front edge of the green, and your ball could easily catch the false side and end up at the bottom of the pond.

    The fifth, a 502-yard, par five, is another hole to play smart. Water runs down the right side and the out-of-bound stakes guard the left edge of the hole.

    To make it even more interesting, the fairway gently rolls like an ocean swell so there are frequent challenges. Crown Isle ends with its signature eighteenth, a 423-yard monster with bunkers both off the tee and guarding the front of an elevated green. Crown Isle is the BC golf course that is on everyones must-play-again list.

    This (Bear Mountain Resort – Mountain Course, on the Vancouver Island Golf Trail) is my new favourite golf course – I just love the layout. It’s really one of the prettiest golf courses I’ve played in my life, I’ll come back here on vacation, it’s that good.

    I always treat golf courses as how many poor holes there are. This (Bear Mountain Resort – Mountain Course, on the Vancouver Island Golf Trail) is a very good one. There’s not one poor hole on this golf course.

    Great job on the initial booking and subsequent changes requested. Easy check-in at the golf courses and the hotel made the trip hassle-free. Nice touch with the driving directions and discounts at recommended food and beverage establishments. Will definitely recommend your service to friends and business associates.
